The ClangCodeModel plugin
=========================
The ClangCodeModel plugin integrates the clang frontend into Qt Creator. Clang
is "a C language family frontend for LLVM". You can find more information at
http://clang.llvm.org/.
At the time of writing the plugin can replace the following functionality of
the built-in code model:
* Highlighting
* Completion
All other functionality relies on the built-in code model (indexing, quick
fixes, follow symbol, find usages, ...).
Setup
=====
Compile the plugin
------------------
1. Get libclang
You need to have libclang (and thus llvm) installed on your system. Either
build llvm/clang yourself [1], install some ready-to-use package [2] or use the
package manager of your system.
[1] http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html
See http://llvm.org/docs/GettingStarted.html#git-mirror for git mirrors.
[2] http://llvm.org/releases/ or http://llvm.org/builds/
If you are building llvm/clang yourself, make sure to build it in release mode.
2. Set LLVM_INSTALL_DIR and (re)build Qt Creator
Point the LLVM_INSTALL_DIR variable to the build/installation directory of
llvm, e.g.:
Installed via package manager on GNU/Linux:
LLVM_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/lib/llvm-3.4
Manually build on Unix in release mode:
LLVM_INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/llvm-build/Release+Asserts
Installed a snapshot on Windows:
LLVM_INSTALL_DIR=C:\llvm
Set the variable either as part of the build environment or pass it directly to
qmake and rebuild Qt Creator. Watch out for a message like
Project MESSAGE: Building ClangCodeModel plugin with Clang from /usr/lib/llvm-3.4
Project MESSAGE: INCLUDEPATH += /usr/lib/llvm-3.4/include
Project MESSAGE: LIBS += -L/usr/lib/llvm-3.4/lib -lclang
This indicates that the ClangCodeModel plugin will be build.
Enable the plugin
-----------------
Enable the "ClangCodeModel" plugin in the dialog "Menu: Help -> About Plugins"
and restart Qt Creator.
Select the file types you want to use the ClangCodeModel for in "Menu: Tools ->
Options -> C++ -> Tab: Code Model". For the next opened file matching the
selected file types the ClangCodeModel will be used (see limitations at the
start of this README).
